LAist Presents: A Good Drink
Showcasing some of the delicious drinks we've had around town, we're inagurating this feature with Luna Park's very tasty "You're A Pepper Too!". This $9 drink comes served on a fancy little silver tray, complete with a tiny carafe full of Absolut Vanilia, another carafe full of organic vanilla syrup, a Dr. Pepper in the old style glass bottle, a tumbler full of ice, a whimsical animal swizzle stick (we scored a giraffe), and the tray is littered with Dr. Pepper flavored jelly beans. It's a Dr. Pepper lover's delight. And if you don't like Dr. Pepper, then you're just out of luck. You combine everything into the tumbler according to your own taste (our is full on vanilla syrup, all of the Absolut, and a top off from the Dr. Pepper). Stop by, have one, thank us later.
